Before getting started on a project do you carefully select the most appropriate Adobe Camera Profile for the specific image at hand? If not, that’s a shame, as you’ll see in the following quick primer from instructor Mitch Lally<\/a>. In fact, watching his video could be the most productive five minutes you spend today.<\/p>\n

Lally is an Australian pro whose assignments take him across the word, and he’s generous enough to share how-to videos explaining the techniques, gear, and photo concepts he prefers. He kicks off today’s episode with a guess: “If you’ve been editing photos in Lightroom for a while, you may be wondering what the go is with the Adobe Profiles in the Develop panel.”<\/p>\n

His goal for today is to explain exactly what these profiles do, how they’re different from in-camera profiles you use when shooting photos with a DSLR. mirrorless model, or even with your  smartphone. A choice between Raw and Jpeg file formats is also part of the conversation. Lally explains the virtues of Raw by comparing a photo to a sculpture made of wet clay, i.e. you can still mold it and change its shape.<\/p>\n

\"\"When editing a Raw file the profile you use choose helps control “the way you visually represent that image.” He also explains why selecting the proper in-camera option is absolutely essential when shooting Jpegs to get the best possible results and simplify post-processing adjustments.<\/p>\n

Lally then answers a question you may have on the tip of your tongue: “If I shoot with my camera’s Standard profile and then import the photo into Lightroom, why does the image look completely different from the in-camera preview?” This is because Lightroom, by default, is going to Select the Adobe Color profile<\/p>\n

And unless you choose the camera-matched profile instead, you’ll be off to a rough start when jumping into adjustments and enhancements. This fact forms the basis all the advice that follows from Lally.<\/p>\n

Trusts us: After watching this quick less you’ll want to add Adobe Profiles to the top of your -post-processing workflow. Then head over to Lally’s informative YouTube channel<\/a> where you’ll find lessons on shooting techniques, image-editing, and more.<\/p>\n

We also recommend watching a tutorial we posted from another trusted instructor who demonstrates why and how you should take advantage of Photoshop’s Adjustment Layers<\/a> to fine-tune every photograph you edit.<\/p>\n
